Chapter 808 - 252:

After Qian Jing sent a message for help to her teacher at the last moment,

she immediately sealed herself and Shui Ling, along with the entirety of Jiangming City, under a crystal.

Once sealed in crystal, everything would come to a halt.

All time, all space, all life, frozen under the crystal’s protection.

This was the most secure magic Qian Jing could use to protect Jiangming City—

Qianjing Spark Fluctuation!

Inside the crystal, there was no need to worry about food and drink, only about when someone might rescue them.

Sometimes, Qian Jing was truly afraid, afraid that when she closed her eyes and opened them again,

the world would be completely different.

It would look like the future, unrecognizable, with all familiar faces gone, leaving her to survive alone in a strange world...

So this time, when sealing, Qian Jing specifically pulled Shui Ling to her side to be sealed together.

On one hand, it was to prevent Shui Ling from being struck by lightning; on the other hand,

it was so that when she opened her eyes to find the world had changed, she would have a friend by her side to stay warm together...

Reality proved her decision was correct.

When Qian Jing’s crystal melted away, she looked at the gigantic constructs rising at the city’s edge, and the ubiquitous environmental changes, and knew.

Everything was a mess.

They had traveled to the future.

At first glance, it looked like towering mountains had appeared at the city’s edge, but as Qian Jing surveyed her surroundings, her heart chilled.

What surrounded the entire Jiang Ming wasn’t mountains, but a thousand-meter-high wall!

Moreover, everything around: the ground, walls, buildings, trees, had all changed from their remembered forms to pure purple!

Purple crystals continually fell, clinking, as Qian Jing felt the sky shimmer with dizziness.

Teacher, it feels like I’ve become Li Taishi...

"Shui Ling, Shui Ling, we will never see Master again, we’ve arrived in the future, wuuu..."

Stunned for a moment, Qian Jing immediately clung to her friend beside her, crying aloud.

The surrounding environment had changed so dramatically, landscapes altered, everything turned purple,

it even seemed like a post-apocalyptic aftermath...

"Could Jiang Ming possibly be the last group of humans in this world? It’s frightening, do you think we can become a good Li Taishi and restore humanity?" Qian Jing sobbed, "Wuuu, do you think we can become good rulers..."

"Stop crying, Qian Jing."

Shui Ling merely pointed upward dazedly, "Are you sure we’re in the future? Or is the Sect Master here too?"

They looked up.

Only then did they truly notice the circular sky encased by the high walls, segmented by countless purple lines,

where massive A-level Disaster Beasts were skewered by purple arrows, pinned tightly against the high walls.

The entire city’s sky transformed into an enormous execution ground once more; although there weren’t many strung-up beasts, their immense size still made them overwhelming and terrifying.

That day, the two finally recalled, the dread once instilled by the Sect Master’s overwhelming power that had subdued the Disaster Beasts, and the shame they felt under the oppressive skies...

Yet this time, not even a faint growl could be heard, as the silent filthy magic power was burned into purple magic crystal by the arrows’ purple flames, shattering as it fell.

In their daze, a fine crystalline rain began to fall.

"Is it possible, truly, that the Sect Leader’s aesthetic has enveloped the entire world, turning it into one giant Sect Leader..."

Qian Jing murmured through her tears.

Shui Ling stood and dusted off her clothes, pulling Qian Jing to fly toward the sky.

Initially, to avoid causing trouble for Jiangming City, they had run towards the city outskirts after being targeted by purple lightning.

But halfway there, they were about to be struck by lightning and had no choice but to crystallize in the outskirts.

Incidentally, they included the entire city in the protection.

Thus, Qian Jing felt it was natural to be in the future because the newly appeared high wall seemed like something that took many years to form. Her teacher’s novels taught her that such towering walls were either the result of internal volcanic activity or tectonic movements clashing continents together.

For instance, the collision between the Sun Moon Continent and the Demon Fighting Continent took over ten thousand years.

Covered in purple crystals, it indeed seemed like some future region upon first glance.

But the Disaster Beasts were just too conspicuous.

The strung-up Disaster Beasts were unmistakably the Sect Master’s style at first glance.

The two had never seen the Sect Master and could only hear about his prowess through their teacher Bai Mei.

After all, Magical Girls of their level didn’t have the privilege to meet the Sect Master.

It was said that within the Cyan Cloud Sect, most Inner Sect Disciples weren’t privileged to meet the Sect Leader, let alone small disciples like them.

Although they had broken through to the Full Bloom Level over time, the Inner Sect examinations were too challenging.

The two prepared for them multiple times, planning to pass in one go, but they still fell short in mock exams...

Avoiding the crystal shards falling, after flying out beyond the high walls, the highways and forests outside came into view—

That was the forest area near Jiangming City, and the high walls they found themselves in were actually a massive pit, with purple lightning and charred earth swirling around it. From the pit, awakened citizens began shouting, their voices echoing from the abyss.

The two remained stunned for half a moment, unable to move, then glanced at each other in shock.
